Get Your Burger On: Mangia! Pizza Burger Sliders

Fire up the grill! The hamburger is as American as apple pie and one of the most versatile entrees you can create. From turkey and veggie burgers to fish and chicken versions, there is no shortage of options when it comes to crafting the perfect one. In celebration of National Hamburger Month, we're grilling up a variety of kid-friendly burgers that can be put together any night of the week.

Pizza tends to be tops on lil ones' lists of favorite foods, so we're building a pizza burger that combines the best of both worlds. Turning the burgers into sliders makes them more manageable for lil hands and less intimidating to eat.
